I took some strips of masking tape and cut it into 1/16" strips. Then used this to mask around the graphics as close as possible. Then filled in the outline with more small pieces of masking tape. Sanded the area to be painted well then sprayed with a grey paint bomb that closely matched the grey of the Westy's cabinet fixtures. Someone did mention a while back that you could take a scan of the graphics then have that scan transferred to a decal by a print shop. That way you could have an all new looking faceplate. Anyone out there who can do this and offer the decals to the List members ?
